While attendees may agree that it's certainly a "once-in-a-lifetime" experience, it's certainly **t one they'd hope to repeat. The brainchild of rapper Ja Rule and entrepreneur Billy McFarland, Fyre was supposed to be a luxury experience that would bring A-list music acts to a small island in the Bahamas. Blink-182 was set to perform for the audience, each of whom paid between $4,000 and $20,000 (http://www.thefader.com/2017/04/28/mass-chaos-luxury-fyre-festival) just for the privilege of being there (airfare **t included). Within minutes of arriving on the scene, crowds realized that they'd been duped. The festival is a total mess, so much so that the organizers have already canceled it, allegedly "due to circumstances out of our control." (https://www.fyrefestival.com/)
An official statement claims that "the physical infrastructure was **t in place on time and we are unable to fulfill on that vision safely and enjoyably for our guests." Fyre has been postponed to a later date, as live updates from guests have continued to flood Twitter. While ** one has actually been hurt, attendees are drawing comparisons to Lord of the Flies and The Hunger Games. Here's a rundown of the situation, as it's happening.
Update: Ja Rule has commented on the situation (https://twitter.com/Ruleyork/status/858025172942675968) via Twitter. "We are working right **w on getting everyone [off] the island SAFE that is my immediate concern," he wrote. "I will make a statement soon. I'm heartbroken at this moment, my partners and I wanted this to be an amazing event. It was **T A SCAM as everyone is reporting. I don't k**w how everything went so left but I'm working to make it right by making sure everyone is refunded . . . I truly apologize as this is **T MY FAULT . . . but I'm taking responsibility. I'm deeply sorry to everyone who was inconvenienced by this."
